The Arena server!

[liftyourskinnyfists]

I was just pondering the idea perhaps of reducing the player slots down to 16 or 12 since it seems rarely over them let alone full.

Perhaps adding the no random crits/fixed spread


Plus a few class restrictions to avoid the 5 aside heavy games or the odd engineer wondering why he can't build anything and wasting a round trying to.

Could also throw in weapon restrictions? I don't think that would float well with misc players that join.


nothing more than an idea, would be nice to see a few tweaks on it!

Sorry to cut short but I've got to run, thanks for reading!

You don't play very often there? After 3 wins teams are scrambled, so there is no need to throw any more class restrictions beside spies and snipers. And no crits/fixed spread is the worst idea ever, don't try to fix the game. Scattergun is not supposed to have great accuracy it's short distance weapon. I know that neither pistol isn't very accurate, but if you want to shot from great distances get sniper rifle. Engineer is bugged and needs fixing and some maps can't accommodate all players so many people have to sit. I believe 16 is optimal number, but I can be wrong.

I play on there a fair bit when people actually go on there, it's usually empty.

I see, but I don't think stuff like no crits, fixed spear or class limts will help. This server already have very decent scramble plugin. Maybe it needs map voting like #9. I don't like some maps like sawmill and Lumberyard. Watchtower is my favorite map, but I know that some people don't like it. Also as I said some maps may have problems with accommodating 24 players, so there can by more than 1 player waiting.

Might not be a bad idea tbh... If you've got only six people on the server and they all like [map name, insert as appropriate] then it would be good if they could vote for it...

Arena with the old fashion rtv and voting system would be fairly decent I tend to see the server empty on parts of the rotation.

So voting isn't coming to #8??
